    Sadly it is only possible to climb on top of the lighthouse on certain days of the week and only by booking in advance... At least during peak season. Also kuds under 8 are not allowed. Our kids 6 and 10 years old were realky disappointed. The lighthouse is nice to look at though

    Fantastic lighthouse in a great environment. Perfect area for a walk in the marshes and/or the wadden sea. You can get a guided tour to the lighthouse (need to buy your tickets by the payed parking lot) as well as to the wadden sea at specific times (find then on the net).
